Phenom by Thao & the Get Down Stay Down Was Made with Zoom

Due to a global pandemic, a variety of events and creative projects that require people to be in the same room are being put on hold or adapted to suit the need to keep a safe distance from others—as seen in the music video for Phenom by Thao & the Get Down Stay Down, which was made with the video conferencing app Zoom. The music video is set up to show nine screens simultaneously, a scene that's familiar to those who have participated in a group video chat via Zoom. In each of the boxes is a different person, each of which performs their own choreography apart from, but in unison, with the others.

The music video also plays with the nine screens, making it appear as though people are falling, showing the creativity that can be expressed with coordination and a few simple resources.
